Here’s another fun fact: A ringworld exerts zero net gravitational force on anyone inside of it. It’s one of the implications of shell theorem.
not exactly true, a sphereworld this would be thecase
Around the edges of the ring structures you would get minute tidal effects
Not if the ring curves inward at the edges, conforming to a section of a sphere.
